Position: Postdoctoral Fellow, Electronic Engineering, CUHK.
 
PI: Ady Suwardi (sustainablethermoelectrics.com)
Email: 1point3acres.com
 
Benefits:
·       Approx. 450,000 HKD/year
Appointment starting date: September/October 2024.
Description
            The project broadly involves studying the thermoelectric properties of inorganic materials (with focus on bulk materials) and exploring their feasibility as energy harvesting devices for harvesting waste heat. Other relevant topic (i.e. pairing thermoelectric with other technologies such as radiative cooling, solar-water evaporator) can be explored, but should centre around thermoelectrics. The postdoc will be involved in, but not limited to the following:
·Inorganic materials preparation synthesis and process from raw elements, vacuum sealing, melting and quenching, powderization, sintering as well as post-processing and machining.
·Characterise the mechanical, electrical, and thermal properties of the final pellet samples.
·Structural characterization using SEM, TEM, XRD, and so on.
·Learn and perform semiconductor properties modeling and analysis using software such as MATLAB, Origin, COMSOL, Ansys, DFT, and so on.
·Mentor new undergraduate or graduate students.
·Day to day training as a scientist, including collaboration discussion, preparing for seminar/presentation, writing research grants, as well as engaging potential collaboration partners.
·Help to maintain operation of the lab, including stocking consumables, and repairing equipment.
Desirable background:
·PhD in Materials Science, Physics, Chemistry, or related fields in Engineering and Science. Prior research experiences in thermoelectric materials synthesis, sample preparation and characterization of ceramics and alloys will be an advantage.
·Strong publication track record.
·       Background knowledge in solid-state physics/chemistry, defect engineering, electronic transport, thermal transport, thermoelectrics, numerical simulation and modelling will be very desirable.
·       Characterization experience including XRD, SEM EDS, TEM, and so on is good to have. 
·       Experience in designing eye-catching figures for publications is good to have.
·       Experience in building home-built experimental setup, with LabView coding will be a major advantage.
